Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

End of March 1941.

The nearly 7000 recruits selected from the recalcitrant armed forces underwent three months of training, and under the guidance of political cadres at all levels, their mental outlook changed drastically, and they faintly looked like regular troops of the Eighth Route Army.

Before joining the Eighth Route Army, these recruits had undergone military training, and then under the leadership of the combat backbone of each regiment, they underwent systematic training. In Zhou Weihan's words, they barely had some combat effectiveness, at least they would not be able to fight against the Japanese and puppet troops. It can be crushed with one blow.

It's just that the weapons and equipment are not yet fully equipped. Now that the war with the Japanese army is imminent, Zhou Weihan can only do special things.

Among the original 7000 recruits, 3000 were assigned to the first regiment, 2000 were assigned to the third and fourth regiments, and each regiment trained recruits on their behalf.

Now Zhou Weihan issued an order to each regiment, and each of the three regiments would draw out an infantry company and some machine gunners, select elite recruits from among the recruits, and form a three-battalion nine-company Soviet Armor Regiment based on this.

Near the military headquarters,
During the Chinese New Year, Tan Lin specially organized people to build a camp nearby, and the newly transferred new regiment was stationed in it.

On the grounds of the camp.

Three infantry companies formed by the first regiment, one supply company, six infantry companies formed by the third and fourth regiments, and a reinforced heavy machine gun company formed by the three regiments.

The difference between the newly formed infantry company and the infantry company under the jurisdiction of the first regiment is that it is not equipped with 50 or 60 mortars, and light machine guns are only barely distributed to the platoon level.

However, the corresponding company-level cadres, cultural teachers, and clerical positions are all filled by backbones drawn from various main regiments.

The entire Soviet Weaponry Regiment is about 2000, equipped with twelve Maxim heavy machine guns, twenty large pan chickens, and more than 1700 rifles. The designation is the Independent Regiment of the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region.

As the political commissar of the military region, Tan Lin was giving a lecture, but what was embarrassing was that the head of the independent regiment was not there.

The political commissar of the independent regiment was Wen Jiadong, who followed Tan Lin from Yanzhou.

Zhou Weihan originally wanted to decentralize power, and the head of the regiment was selected from the group of comrades who came from Yanzhou, but Tan Lin insisted that Zhou Weihan find a candidate for the head of the regiment.

Tan Lin's move really caught Zhou Weihan off guard. From the very beginning when he mentioned to Zhao Gang in Tainan the establishment of the Su Armed Corps, Zhou Weihan never considered the candidate for the regiment leader.

At this time, Zhou Weihan and Li Yunlong were standing on the side of the school field, watching the establishment ceremony of the independent group.

"What's the matter? The independent regiment has been established, without a regiment leader, how can such a troop have combat effectiveness?" Li Yunlong said winkingly.

"What's the matter, do you want to let you also be the head of the independent group?" Zhou Weihan said angrily.

"That's a good relationship. Leading a group is also leading. I don't think it's too much to bring an independent group!" Li Yunlong said with a shy face.

"What you think is quite beautiful. It's not that the independent regiment has no regiment leader. The military region has decided to have Comrade Zhou Weiguo as the commander of the independent regiment. When Zhou Weiguo is already in the smooth handover, it will arrive in two days. You should be honest. The new regiment leader!"

Li Yunlong was not surprised after hearing this, and immediately said: "Hey, it is appropriate to let Zhou Weiguo be the head of the independent regiment. Although I am not familiar with him, when he led people to draw a military sand table in Lidongnan, he was in the new regiment. In a few days, he has something in his stomach!"

Zhou Weihan glanced at Li Yunlong in surprise. Li Yunlong was born with mud legs, and what he disliked the most was graduates from regular military schools.

From Li Yunlong's words of praise for Zhou Weiguo, it can be seen that Zhou Weiguo must have shown Li Yunlong's hands. The last person who received such treatment from Li Yunlong was Chu Yunfei.

On the same day, after the independent regiment was established, it was stationed with the new regiment.

Zhou Weihan called several regiment leaders to hold a small meeting.

Looking at the people present, Zhou Weihan asked with a smile: "How is it? After this winter, how has the combat effectiveness of your regiments recovered? Will the deployment of an infantry company and a group of cadres affect the combat effectiveness?"

Except for Tan Lin and Wen Jiadong, all the people present were old acquaintances. The meeting was obviously hosted by Zhou Weihan, and there were not so many courtesies.

After Jing Dagang heard this, he laughed: "Detachment Captain, since our first regiment was established, we have never lived such a peaceful life. We fought a battle for more than two months, and my bones are itchy!"

"The cadres sent to the independent regiment are all deputies. As for the combat effectiveness, it's hard to say, we have to pull it out to see!"

When Jing Dagang, the head of the regiment, said this, Wu Qin pouted immediately: "Old Jing, your regiment is too modest. I have heard that there is a lot of movement in the training on weekdays. You do it with real knives and guns. The headquarters More than half of the hospital is your group of wounded, right?"

"That's what I said, I have to figure out something by myself. I don't want the soldiers to be injured, but I can't get protective equipment. Besides, you three regiments are not idle!"

"The camps of your three regiments have been shooting. Why did I hear that someone dropped a batch of ammunition supplies from other places and smuggled them? Why did you Wuqin learn to eat alone?" Jing Dagang responded with a smile.

After Wu Qin heard this, his face turned red obviously. In order to overwhelm the first and fourth regiments, Wu Qin often asked the soldiers to practice marksmanship, and even sneaked some of his family property from southern Hebei.

Li Yunlong, a guy who is not stunned, said at this time: "If you want to tell me, you have to practice in actual combat. It doesn't matter if you get a little injury on the training ground. It's nothing more than a few broken ribs. If you are on the battlefield , what you lose is your life!"

"Okay, it's useless to talk about it. Whoever is stronger will know when he goes to the battlefield!" Zhou Weihan stopped the topic in front of him.

"The little devil's redemption of Fushimi Gong Mingyi is estimated to be a matter of these few days. The little devil will definitely not let it go. We still need to prepare in advance!"

"I have ordered the enemy engineering department to keep an eye on the Japanese troops in various places, especially the movements of the main Japanese troops in Anyang, Kaifeng, and Shangqiu!"

"The First Regiment and the New First Regiment followed me eastward toward Neihuang County. The Third Regiment went south from Nanle to keep an eye on the Japanese troops in Puyang and Pu County. The Fourth Regiment marched southwest from Qingfeng to keep an eye on Jun County. The Japanese army in the county!"

"Besides, the main task of your two regiments is to stop the Japanese troops from the [-]th Division and the [-]th Cavalry Brigade who are likely to go north, and they must be intercepted outside the base area."

"Yes!" Several regiment leaders present responded.

"Political commissar, I will take these four main regiments away, and you stay in the base area with the independent regiment, local armed forces, and the recruits trained by the third and fourth regiments!"

"The majority of the Japanese troops will be intercepted by them, and the Japanese troops in the northwest of Shandong will be restrained by the comrades of the Luxi Military Region. The only thing that needs to be guarded against is the Japanese troops in Guancheng, Fanxian, and Chaocheng in the east of the base area. However, the Japanese troops stationed here There are not many troops, and the main force wiped out most of the north in the anti-stubborn battle, so there is no big threat!"
